Abstract
A cross-sectional study was conducted from May to July 2011. The multivariate analysis exposed significant associations by postmortem examination: age gt;4 years (P= 0.000, OR= 18.5, 95% CI= 3.1, 21.7), foreign breed (P= 0.000, OR= 77.6, 95% CI= 9.3, 81.6), light weight (P= 0.000, OR= 3.0, 95% CI= 1.9, 5.3), Ethiopian cattle (P= 0.000, OR= 76.1. 95% CI= 8.4, 83.7) and small size (P= 0.000, OR= 3.1, 95%CI= 1.9, 5.3). while, the coprology demonstrated significant associations among: age gt;4 years (P= 0.000, OR= 28.8, 95% CI= 3.9, 34.2), foreign breed (P= 0.000, OR= 94.4, 95% CI= 13.2, 102.6), light weight (P= 0.000, OR= 53.4, 95% CI= 7.1, 61.3), Ethiopian cattle (P= 0.000, OR= 60.2, 95% CI= 8.3, 70.1) and small size (P= 0.000, OR= 54.9, 95% CI= 6.3, 63.8). A higher prevalence was recorded by postmortem examination (X#xB2;= 1.669, P= 0.000). This study determined the prevalence of bovine fasciolosis.
